The festival previously announced such headliners as Moby, Flaming Lips, Ghostland Observatory, Chromeo STS9 and an art installation and lecture by Brian Eno, who will show his "77 Million Paintings" video work at the YMI Cultural Center.

"We have some other facets of the festival that we will be announcing in coming weeks," said Moogfest promotor Ashley Capps of AC Entertainment in Knoxville.

Moogfest, which honors the memory of the late electronic music pioneer Robert Moog, has become one of the city's best-known music events. Grammy-winner Moog, who lived in Asheville until his 2005 death, was the inventor of the keyboard music sythensizer which radically changed both peformance and recording.

Tickets have been selling fast for the festival, now in its second year. "Response has been fantastic and we don't even have day passes on dale yet," Capps said.

"Leah has been an amazing realtor to work with, both professionally and personally. It was a true pleasure to work with her at every step of this very big life transition. I was out of state when I p ut my house on the market, and she was my lifeline for staging and facilitating all aspects of the selling process. Leah made herself fully available above and beyond standard expectations, accommodating our four hour time difference and being my point person for the on-site wrap up that I couldn't be present for. Considering that I called Town and Mountain Realty based on a Google search, and [...]

"I contacted Lorraine to ask for assistance in buying a home in Asheville. We are planning to relocate there from Wisconsin, so based on a recommendation we chose Lorraine. I knew immediately from our first conversation that we had made the perfect choice. She was given only a couple of days advance notice that I would be down the following Monday to begin my active search for homes. She made the time to spend 2 full days showing me asheville and helping me to become more familiar with the area. Following our initial talk on the phone, she went to work right away for us. She [...]

"Competent, honest, great communicator! Everything we could ask for in a Realtor." ~Chris and Kelly

"Justin was an amazing Realtor and went so far above and beyond what I would have ever expected. His intuition proved itself on our first meeting where he was dead on with what we were looking for in a home. After we found a home that suited our needs, his attention to detail, knowledge, and focused work ethic allowed us to proceed with our V.A. Loan as smoothly as possible. Not only did he have all the contacts we needed for executing the loan and performing all the needed inspections, but he took personal interest in each step of the process and was extremely helpful in explaining each piece of the puzzle. We truly felt like we received the best service we could have ever had in a [...]

" Leah's awesome! My wife and I definitely lucked out! Leah was the gift. The house we bought was just a constellation prize."

"Lorraine went over and above to help us find a home. She worked with us prior to our coming to North Carolina from Iowa to find home in 4 days. Sent us homes she thought we would like and researched home we sent her that we found. Thanks to her.... we found and purchased a home in 4 days! We have recommended Lorraine to others and they have been just as happy with her as we were."

"I'm not sure what to call the quality that Dana has that made it so easy and such a pleasure to deal with her: laid back but prompt, patient but persistent, sincere & trustworthy. There were several points where I marveled at her ability to wait for us to resolve our indecision, to always seem like she had all the time in the world when I knew she was on a pretty tight schedule. She made it easy, and we are very grateful."

"Through the years we have worked with several realtors in different states while making a number of moves, but it is difficult to discover any better than Leah and her dad, Mike Miller. As we began looking at the Asheville housing market from out of state a couple of years ago, we were rather particular—some might call it picky — in trying to select our next home. In our lengthy search Leah and Mike never lost patience with us, nor did they ever try to rush us into trying to make a [...]

She was always super fast in answering and providing well-grounded information. I can highly recommend her."

He served as a great negotiator on our behalf, made sure all of our paperwork was complete and on schedule, and was always quick to respond to any questions we had. He was also great to just discuss our needs and how individual properties could or could not meet them. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to make a home purchase in the Asheville Area! Very happy with his responsiveness, willingness to discuss issues, and flexibility to meet my needs. Andy [...]

My wife and I have completed 9 home transactions in the past and never before have we had an agent as good as Amanda.

Her communication with us is always clear and timely. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing to buy or sell a home. ~ Pat

"I bought my house from long distance without ever seeing it in person as I was living abroad. Kat did an excellent job of understanding what type of house in what type of neighborhood would suite my needs and life style. She was very helpful in providing short videos to give me a better sense of a property that I wanted to get a better feel for."

"Several months ago, I decided I had procrastinated long enough ( about 8 yrs) and needed to sell our home of 30 years. It was an 80's house we had built and raised our two daughters - the only home they had known. I talked with a realtor and was was discouraged our home was not worth what I had hoped. My daughters wanted me to get a second opinion and my son-in- law asked if I would be willing to talk to someone he knew- "the nicest guy he'd ever met"
So I called Chris Tuten and we scheduled an appointment for him to look at the house. Two days later he arrived [...]

"Amanda is very knowledgeable, professional and personable. She does not hesitate to go an extra mile in order to help her clients.

We love our new place and we'd highly recommend working with Amanda to everyone who seeks an honest, knowledgeable and dependable agent." ~ Michael

He has an uncanny ability to anticipate problems before they arise and head them off at the pass, saving his clients money and frustration. Robbie is knowledgeable, professional, and diligent.

She was very patient in explaining what each form we signed was for and with working with us through the difficult times of a move. I would recommend Beth to anyone looking to purchase or sell a piece of real estate."

"Aviva was a pleasure to work with. My husband and I are first time home buyers, new to North Carolina. Aviva was instrumental to our understanding of the home-buying process, Asheville’s personality and even services needed around the Asheville area (doctors, veterinarian, mechanic, accountant… the list goes on). We relied heavily on her advice and we really trusted her. We found she was willing to go the extra mile and was always very prompt about all she helped us with. She was enthusiastic and cheerful and I even had fun! I would definitely recommend working with [...]

She is FULL of energy, knows the region and is one of the friendliest and most flexible agents that you could meet! We started looking at homes, but switched to properties, which had Lorraine adjusting quickly! She didn't skip a beat, and we found a lovely property near town. I will never forget watching Lorraine hiking the property, describing its potential! Lorraine was savvy in negotiations, with her strong [...]

~ Frank J. Yurchak

"Mike served as our agent for both the sale of our home in Madison County and the purchase of our home in East Asheville. His decades of experience in this market and his strong network of relationships within the real estate business served us well on both the buyer and seller sides. Whenever we hit a bump in the road, he was there to help us work through it with knowledge and good humor. He's extremely fair and even handed and was as pleasant and helpful on the 40th or 50th home we looked at as he was on the very first. He gets my heartiest recommendation."

"Luiz was great from start to finish! Luiz was there for us every step of the process. First he assisted us in selling our home of twenty years.

We will recommend his services to anyone we know looking for a home, or looking to sell!" ~ Tag G.
